is there a way to block access to my space?

Question

is there a way to block access to my space or any other website from a computer?

Answer 1

I personally recommend the Naomi Internet Filter. It's free and simple to use:

http://www.naomifilter.org/

Using the filter is simple; if your kids try to visit a blocked site or if they search for "bad" words or pictures (adult content), then Naomi automatically and instantly closes out their Web browser.

The settings are password protected, so the filter cannot be shut down by anyone unauthorized to do so. I cannot be shut down manually through the Task Manager either.

If you do not wish to use a filter, there are other work-arounds available, though not as secure:

If you have a modem or a router with a built-in firewall, then you can log into that and add the site to the "block list". If you are unsure if you have a built-in firewall, or if that sounds too difficult, then try the following remedy:

Open Internet Explorer then click Tools > Internet Options > Privacy > Sites (button) > then enter http://www.myspace.com into the address field and then click the Block button > click OK

This isn't a very secure work-around. If whoever it is you're blocking myspace from figures out how to remove the site from the "block list", then the above will have been a waste of time.

Also, they will still be able to visit myspace by using another web browser, such as Firefox or Opera, until you manually enter in the same blocked site into their blocked list as well.

Your best bet is to try the Naomi Internet filter.

Good luck!
